There are a few ways to answer this question, depending on the context of the question. Here is one:

The body contains "brown fat" and "White fat". Brown fat is burned for energy, high in nutrients, briefly stored and regularly burned for energy at a steady rate. White fat is stored for very long periods of time, sometimes forever,and very difficult to convert into energy. Obese people are full of this type of fat. It can be subcutaneous (Under the skin), accumulated on your internal organs, or located in the interstitial space inside your body between and around organs. It is also in your blood (triglyceride cholesterol), and can be stored in your neck, fat pads on your cheeks (These pads can be easily removed by Plastic Surgeons), or anywhere else on your body.

Brown fat good....white fat bad.
